Thu 5.26 6.40p: White vs. Castellanos Fri 5.27 6.40p: Gonsolin vs. Bumgarner Sat 5.28 4.15p: TBD vs. M Kelly Sun 5.29 1.10p: T Anderson vs. TBD
This series, the last leg of a ten-game road trip, starts with Mitch White. White's last start was not so great (2.1 IP, 3 ER), and this very short outing vs. Philadelphia burdened the relief corps. Can White, in the opener, not cast a long shadow over the rest of the series?
Hoping we can rebound after dropping yet another final game in a series, preventing a sweep (Dodgers are 4-2 on this road trip).
And in other news: Sax placed two bets on the Dodgers last week, winning on both the Monday and Tuesday games. I didn't place a bet on Wednesday. And we lost. (SoSG Dusty blames me for the loss.)

Mookie with a leadoff double to start the game!!!
2-0 after the top of the first. Mookie and Freeman each hit a double, Trea sacrifices Freeman over, and Slappy gets an RBI single.

Smith C
Rios DH
Justin Turner 3B
Bellinger CF
Taylor LF
Lux 2B
Mitch White P
8-pitch, three up three down first inning for Mitch
6-0 LA through two. Freeman hit a no-doubt three-run HR in the second.
Bellinger fouls out 😐
Gavin is hurt, getting thrown out at third trying to stretch from first for some unknown reason. That might be the third out, if the Dodgers lose the challenge.
Dodgers lose the challenge, Lux is out. And possibly hurt. Great.
6-0 LA through 2.5
Just finished the Friday NYT crossword on my phone. 13:40, not too bad
Leadoff single for the Snakes in B3
Betts leadoff single to start the sixth. And Freddie promptly doubles him in. It’s 7-0 LA
Trea Turner triples to score Freeman!
Now we just need a Slappy HR
Good stuff Saxy.
10-1 LA through 6. We score four in the top of the sixth, but Christian Walker gets a solo shot to put AZ on the board.
New AZ pitcher with the bases loaded and Edwin Rios up. One pitch, one out. Bases left loaded.
Gotta be more patient, Edwin.
JT with a leadoff double. Ball strangely stuck right on the warning track at the wall. But Belli flies out for the first out.
CT3 HR!
It’s 12-1 LA
Evan Phillips gets a rare AB here
14-1 WIN

MadBum is such an ass. I really just hate that guy.
MadBum's pitch goes behind JT's back. JT gave him a look or two and then took his base on ball 4.
Edwin Rios goes yard at Dodger Stadium East. 3-0 Boys B2.
.....and Mookie goes outta the park right after Rios. 4-0 Boys B2.
Sorry!!! Top of 2.
A Bromance brewing between Mook and Freddie. Mookie says even their families are becoming close.
Love it!!
Pepino thanks chased in the fifth with the bases loaded and one out. Grateful yields a sac but nothing more.
Then Trea leads off the sixth with a solo shot off Ashley Madison. 5-1 LA
^Pepiot
My god, autocorrect rendered my last comment unintelligible
@Saxy-The word Pepino is the Spanish translation for Cucumber. It makes your comment more hilarious.
I've been binging on Halt and Catch Fire. Been driving by checking on the score here. Thanks y'all
Vespa falling apart here
Vespa was behind Christian Walker 3-0 with two on, and was able to go 3-2 and then get him to ground out to short.
6-2 LA
Kimbrel is not making this easy. Two men on with none out, B9
Rojas hits a ground rule double to make it 6-3 LA. None out, and the tying run at the plate for the Snakes.
Walker grounds to Trea Turner for the second out, but a run scores so it's 6-4 LA
Whew. Heck of an AB by Peralts, but he finally grounds to Hanser for the final out.
WIN
Good night, all!

Leadoff HR! 1-0 LA
Wasted opportunity in the 2nd. Rios gets picked off first then JT soubles ,Sloppy walks then shot hits the fan. 1-0 LA
Peralta scores. On a triple by McCarthy.
1-1
Dammit. Another Dbag triple
2-1 AZ
I really hate these in game interviews. Just want to tell everyone to shut the fuck up and let me watch the game without any bullshit.
Freddie scores on a.diving catch sac fly.
3-2 LA
I didn't know Tommy Pham slapped Joc during a.game last night. Something about a meme or some other dumb shit. People are idiots these days.
@spank: it was apparently about a fantasy football move Joc did last season which Pham thought was a crappy move (or possibly an illegal move). I don’t play fantasy. But slapping Joc about it is pretty ridiculous.
What is it with the slapping these days?!?!
3-2 LA through five full
JT gets his third hit of the game.
Take notes, Bellinger
Bellinger takes no notes, and promptly Ks
Lux with a leadoff double!
@saxy - yeah. I think Joc was dissing Pham.about fantasy football game. Sent Pham a pic of three weight lifters with Dodgers,Giants and Padres unis and the Padres weightlifter was crushed under a.barbell
Oh Gavin. leadoff double, and then a running error gets you tagged out at third on a pop fly to center. What the fuck.
And now freeman is picked off first. What the hell.
This iHeart radio app is total bullshit. In between innings, they start switching over to non-dodgers commercials that will run infinitely unless you stop the feed and then re-start the feed. Totally lame.
I’ve got a bad feeling about Vesia here
Vesia shuts my ass up. Ks the last two to get out of a one-out walk.
Vesia k's Smith. On to the 9th
Shit
That's a wrap. 3-2 LA
Hudson! Wow, gives up a leadoff double and then Ks the side. Nice
WIN

Kevin Pillar gets a start. Holy smokes.
What an AB by Slappy! 12 pitches, ends with a HR!
1-0 LA, no out in the first. Wait, one out in the first thanks to Rios first ball swinging --> ground out.
3-0 LA through 3. Freddie and Trea each nabbed a RBI in the third.
Pirates @ Padres is the MLBtv free game of the day. Pirates aren't putting up much of a fight here, but it's tied.
Meanwhile, 3-0 LA, mid-5
Profar just hits a HR to give the Padres a 2-0 lead. B5 in SD.
Tyler Anderson walks Hummel, so now Snakes at the corners with two out.
Rojas was up 2-0, and Anderson threw three strikes to get the K and escape the jam.
3-0 LA through 5 full
Dammit Trea! Fourth pickoff of this series, according to Rick Monday. What the hell
And now Trea makes an error, so it's two on with none out.
Oh, Trea gets off the hook--ruled a FC
Comebacker to Tyler Anderson, leads the double play!
3-0 LA through 6
CT3 tries to bunt but it goes back to the pitcher. One out.

Still 3-0 LA

Four-pitch walk from Philips
How did Mookie drop that one?!
3-1 LA, Peralta on third now. Tying run at the plate.
Snakes smell blood, they get Melancon up in their bullpen
Kimbrel gets the strikeout!
WIN
SWEEP!!!
